Adding to its series of Marvel Studios’ premium collectibles, award-winning Singapore-based global design studio XM has unveiled the brand new 1:4 Marvel Premium Collectibles series statue, War Machine (XM ‘War Tank’ Exclusive).
Exclusive to XM, War Tank is an original concept jointly co-created by XM and artist Adi Granov (one of his most notable works includes creating the concept and keyframe artwork for the Marvel Studios’ Iron Man, released in 2008).
Never before released in the comics, War Tank is a heavily enhanced exo-suit extension of War Machine’s suit, expanding on its explosive artillery, firepower and weaponry capabilities. The angular and aggressive design of War Tank is detailed with striking likeness based on the military background of Lieutenant Colonel James “Rhodey” Rhodes.
The statues feature hefty armour-plated suits, tank tracks as legs for mobility, a massive rail gun in replacement of its right arm, fortified with back-mounted missile launchers and tremendous gunpower.
Version A presents War Machine within War Tank itself, and Version B allows collectors the option to display War Machine either on the inside or on the outside of War Tank with two additional weapons.
“Standing at an estimated mammoth height of 88cm tall, 91cm in length and 93cm in width, the War Tank is the largest 1:4 Scale Statue Collectible that XM has produced since inception,” said Mr Ben Ang, CEO and co-founder of XM.
Definitely, a statement piece to have in your collection. We are very excited to have this opportunity to create an enhanced version of War Machine. We hope our fans and collectors enjoy it as much as we do. Huge gratitude and thanks towards the Marvel team for the support and for granting us this working chance.”
The War Machine (XM ‘War Tank’ Exclusive) Ver A features War Machine within War Tank and LED light-up chest and eyes. Each handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with a high-quality finish.
War Machine (XM ‘War Tank’ Exclusive) Ver B – XM Exclusive features the option to display War Machine outside of War Tank with the hatch closed, to allow for side-by-side display, War Machine within War Tank, and two additional weapons – 1 attached to War Tank’s left arm, one on War Tank’s right leg.
Both can be removed to be attached on to War Machine, and also features LED light-up chest and eyes.
Pre-order for the premium statues is now available with prices starting from S$4,199. However, it is limited to Southeast Asia, Middle East, India and North Africa only.
